Question:

When a profiles says the person is recommended, how can i read those recomendations When a profiles says the person is recommended, how can i read those recomendations

Answer:

On POF you have to pay for everything except the basics. So if you want to see someone that put "meet me", or did they read your message or anything along those lines you have to upgrade for 20 bucks for one month and it's not worth it. It is absolutely not worth it.

Question:

Hi i am totally disgusted with pof customer service. over 5 years of on and off site contact where i have met some nice male friends but i am tired of the nigerian scammers on this site. i say nigerians because i have developed a sixth sense after a particularly bad experience and the fact that at least 3 of them have admitted after i carefronted them and pointed out the grammar errors that are peculiarly nigerian. the latest one had all the trademarks came on fast gave me his email address in his first message, had photos of a very handsome man and was very complimentary. i realized that his profile outline and the message he sent contained contradictions but i played along. a few days later he sent me photos of him on a famous tv show. i looked up the tv show and traced the photos to a facebook page where all the photos he had sent me were displayed with the real man's family. my mistake was to let the fraudster know he was a fraud and shame on him for trying to scam women. my computer was hacked into that night and the next day when i went to the pof site i could no longer log in. i realized that my email address was no longer identified on the site when i tried to change my password. my account had been hacked into, my identity stolen, and a new profile with my user name and profile information had been created for a woman in toronto. i had reported all the facts and the profile to pof but have never received a response from pof even though i provided all the identification information i had researched fr the facebook proving the fraudsters id was false. it is a pity that pof cannot be sued only then will a response be forthcoming. i am disgusted with the lack of response and accountability for letting real creeps on the site and making no effort to reply to reports made in good faith to protect others. now this fraudster has created a female profile using my user name and profile information. pof where are you? pof can you protect your customers or do you not give a damn?

Answer:

Well, like you said... you knew it was a scammer and decided it was worth the risk to "play a long "... sounds like you aren't interested in protecting yourself and now you're looking for someone to blame for your games ;)

Question:

I all of sudden cannot log into my account my user name is tgeg1 I all of sudden cannot log into my account my user name is tgeg1

Answer:

Because they got into your account and they're going to steal all your money they've done it to me several times I'm a dumb idiot because I know nothing about technology I tried to report to POF but they do not answer back I just keep reporting their profiles take a look at the names they come up with look at their names you'll know they're not real and if a guy looks too good or girl looks too good to be on there usually it's true it's full of s*** it's a scam they know the people on there with Google workspace numbers one person can be 50 and they get your text or your phone number and they get into your accounts

Question:

Disgusted with the attitude of your members both male and female their utter ignorance and rude attitudes should make these people be banned Disgusted with the attitude of your members both male and female their utter ignorance and rude attitudes should make these people be banned

Answer:

I actually met a woman on this site. We were a couple for several years. That was in Phoenix. I'm not in Phoenix now. I noticed that there were kind people and rude people on Phoenix and there are kind people and rude people where I currently reside. I think that's just human nature. It can be frustrating for sure. Ok Cupid is a good place to meet people. The bottom line is that a good relationship takes time and work.

Answer:

You didn't mention if your account was a paid membership or not. I would first refer to that aspect before speculating on any of a myriad of possibilities, except to add that it is the revenues from the "paid" members, and advertisements, that pays the bills for that site. And like it or hate it, POF does get a serious amount of web traffic. I suspect that, to offset the traffic of the non-paying members and visitors that POF has bots which lottery-style randomly withhold activity from, in the idea that a user will assume that it's just a technical "glitch" or "bug" and either upgrade to a paying membership or get p. O.'d enough to abandon their free one (thereby, by their logic -not mine, no longer seemingly usurping resources of the site). Just a thought. A possibility, but your guess really is as good as mine. In case you missed it you may want to check out my review, posted elsewhere in this one, titled "YOU DO THE MATH". - good luck to you. -
